i was thinking the LED windsheild washers added too much horsepower with my Euroclear taillights and black strobe light inside are just overwhelmingly to powerful for my car

you dont need a new tb

check your throttle cable, make sure its not stuck on something. something is keeping your tb plates open.

Could be a vac leak. When I replaced the injectors in my project Civic (gasp!) I accidentally left the PCV hose disconnected. Upon starting the car, it shot up to around 5.5k RPM. You might want to look out for broken or disconnected vac lines.

it's most likely something w/ the TPS or throttle cable. When my friend Brandon got his new engine, we drove down the road and his RPM SHOT up. After inspecting it, an interior clip had made it's way to the airbox (thanks to the people who installed it) and lodged itself in the TB. This messed w/ the TPS and it didn't like it.

In other words, check around the TB and look for anything out of the ordinary.

yeah throttle cable does sound suspect...cant think of anything that would make you rev up that fast and high. btw where in corona are you located? im in riverside, ca / corona hills area...we should get all the T2 in the area together...i just met a guy in san bernardino with a T2 also.

* I know 89's have an electic oil meter pump, but do they still have the rod from the throttle go down to that area? I friend of mine had her OMP rod get hung up and it held the throttle open. *

Needless to say, she drove it home that way. Blew the engine and cooked the brakes.. heh heh.. some people..
